She held my hand in hers
She's the only person who cares

"Sweetie, look I know you can't talk ,
But lemme tell you that you can walk

You can do it
And listen : if your mind can conceive it, then you can achieve it

You can reach your destiny
And I know that deep in me

One day I might not be here
But you've got to beat fear

And ill be watching over you
I know you CAN get through"

And with these words I remember my mom today
I still can't talk and mom has walked away

I kept my hand moving as I recalled memories of mother
When I saw a girl with her mum together

They laughed as if they had everything
Their cloth was torn , old but they can still sing

They can talk, but they don't have money
They're not poor , they've got what I don't , funny

I looked at my painting and smiled
I drew what was in my mind

"Hello there" said a deep manly voice
I panicked then took out a chart , my only choice

I scrippled a hello and he understood
"If I can help I would"

He said , I smiled back
"How much is it?"

I wrote down :'too much , sir'
He asked "yeah , but I'm willing to buy it ..."

I wrote:' if you have one appreciate it'
Bewildered he scanned my dull teary eyes and a long wait

"keep it , I'm sorry "he took out money
And headed straight to the poor lady

She smiled to me then thanked the man
He waved me a goodbye and away he ran

I smiled and looked up the sky
"Mom, see ! People love you ! And -and I'm moving on ! I don't cry .."

I guess you know what I painted
If your mind can conceive it, then you can achieve it...
